Feghouli signs Valencia extension until 2016

By Stefan Coerts

The 23-year-old France-born attacker, who has been in great form this season, has ended speculation about his future by inking a two-year extension with the Mestalla side

Valencia have announced on their official website that they have successfully concluded contract negotiations with Algeria international Sofiane Feghouli, resulting in a new deal that will keep the winger at the club until June 2016.

The 23-year-old's previous agreement ran until the summer of 2014, but he has now signed on for two additional seasons.

Feghouli, who is a product of the Grenoble youth academy, joined Valencia ahead of the 2010-11 campaign and has developed into a valued first team member after a difficult start at the Liga outfit.

The attacking midfielder has made 22 appearances for Valencia this term, scoring six goals in the process.

Feghouli is due to join up with Algeria's national side in the upcoming days as they prepare for the Africa Cup of Nations.
